Puffy Knees

Another Sunday and another long run. This one had me cover over 18kms, but at a slow pace of just over 6min per km.

My legs were very tired at the end of this one and my knees felt very puffy. I’ve been on the paracetemol and ibuprofen since the run…

One thing I need to look into is the hydration during the run. How much should I be drinking? How do I carry the fluids I need with me? What do people do during a marathon? Do they carry a water bottle with them? Do they take water or an isotonic drink whilst running? Which is better?

So many questions… any ideas from other runners would be greatly appreciated!
